Subject: [9fans] VESA issue on VIA EPIA SN18000G
Date: Sun,  4 Oct 2009 16:09:51 -0700	[thread overview]

9fans,

> VESA requires realmode.

Thank you Erik, it was an oversight from my part. I was able to start rio
in 1024x768x8 and 1280x1024x8 using the VESA driver, however, the keyboard
was not working, and the pointer had no cursor.

Please note, that, while the pointer had no cursor, the mouse was working
fine, and I was able to open windows, although I couldn't type anything in
them.

This is what I bind (cpurc) before starting rio:

  for (i in m i S t U P)
	bind -a '#'^$i /dev >/dev/null >[2=1]

Please note that I'm using a PS/2 mouse and keyboard, and I am not
starting the usb daemon. Finally, the keyboard works fine at the Plan9
boot prompt. Should this matter, aux/vga doesn't use the '-c' option.


Any thoughts?
  Jerome
